Chapter 128 - Flashback-Magical World (Part 13)

As they climbed into the Cars, Aarvin informed Zen that these cars run on electricity and anti-gravity when they need to flew upwards, at the time of descending the gravity aspect is made operational.

Zen could not figure out how Aarvin got to know what he was thinking. He even asked Aarvin to which Aarvin replied that a little bird had told him..

Our cars ascended and we were soon flying above the treetops towards the docking area of the aliens. Our friends, the Orbs, flew alongside the cars as the cars flew above the treetops.

After about 15 minutes of flying above the treetops, the 4 cars started to descend. We could see the landing area where your spaceship had been docked. The cars came to the side of an adjacent building and hovered slightly above the turf. We all got down from the cars and followed Aarvin to the main door. Someone was there to meet us.

Aarvin introduced us all to John, the person who was there to receive us. John took them inside and simultaneously informed us that you, the aliens, had been told of the meeting with Earthlings.

John told us that the Crocodile Race people were equally excited to meet us. John led us through a long corridor to the meeting area which was adjacent to the rooms given to the guests.

We all stopped at a door which John opened and ushered us inside. However, the Orbs were ushered to an adjacent room telling them that they need to wait here for about an hour.

We waited in the conference room and took our seats as per the nameplate placed against the vacant seats on the table. John ensured that we all were seated at our respective seats thereafter, he excused himself saying that he was going to bring the Crocodile Race people to the conference room.

Soon he returned to the conference room with you four Crocodile Race people.

You all 4 of the Crocodile Race people sat opposite us at the conference table so that we would be facing each other.

John occupied the main chair and the chair adjacent to him was occupied by Aarvin.

Tina could feel that you 4 Crocodile Race people were feeling awkward. It could be due to their spacesuits or maybe it was due to you being apprehensive in meeting the Earthlings.

You 4 people of the Crocodile race introduced yourself as 'Ken' the pilot of the spaceship. 'Aan' the second in command who was sitting beside him. 'Tab' was the third one who managed the engines of the spaceship. 'Guy' was the last to be introduced and he looked after the computer system, conversations with other races when in flight and when necessary. As their leader introduced them, they all got up from their seats one by one.

Tina had managed to identify Guy was the Clumsy Crocodile who had just swished his tail and almost fell off his chair while trying to get up. The tail was indeed a nuisance. Luckily, she had a long plaited string and she thought she would help the clumsy chap by tying his tail to his chest area in the form of a loop so that it does not cause harm.

After the introduction by the Crocodile Race was done, Aarvin introduced us all as well as himself and John to the alien race.

Tina here had told John that that Alien called Guy seems to be heading for problems due to his unmanageable tail and was likely to falll and hurt himself and some plants or people of this Magical World. She want to help. It was a temporary solution but it will help him from falling or hurting himself and others. Saying this Tina got up from her seat.

The Aliens could understand what she was saying as they could sense what she wanted to do.

She gestured Guy to step away from the conference table. She then looped the plaited string around Guy's chest and the two ends she tied by making a loop to his tail.

Guy, you will not fall now, she told him with a smile. Guy had never expected anyone to help him in such a manner. He looked at his leader, Ken and seemed to be exchanging some sort of message telepathically or with eye contact. Ken sought permission from all for the 4 guests to go back to their rooms in order to remove their spacesuits as these were very uncomfortable.

Everyone agreed and you all left to visit your rooms for a bit.

Within a few minutes you all returned and behold, you were no longer looking like crocodiles but like the hosts. In actual fact, you all looked like the heroes of romantic novels i.e. tall dark and handsome types from Earth.

The crocodile race people sat down against their designated nameplates and now there was no confusion. They looked very much like the Earthlings and the people of the Magical World.

The rest you all know.

Ken, you had explained to us that you were called the 'Crocodile Race' but you were not crocodiles in any manner whatsoever. These crocodile suits were to make you look ferocious so that the other aliens do not trouble you. You also informed that it was an idea of your forefathers to wear these spacesuits which would give you a ferocious look. It would ensure that no one would attacked your world and your people would be safe. You had also informed that you were called the 'Garhyals' meaning 'Crocodile', hence, the Crocodile Race.

"I think now I will take over, said Ken.

Actually the kind gesture of Tina here, made us realize that we were not among suspicious aliens but among our own people, our own friends. So, we decided to come in front of you as we actually are." Ken added with a smile.

Then he did a brief description of their story that began 7000 years ago when the Earth was at a very high stage of scientific advancement. The Earthlings had their spaceships and were exploring the space beyond the Earth and the Moon.
